Css (BScCSIT 5th Semester)

CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) is a language that describes the style and formatting of elements on a webpage. CSS can be used to control layout, colors, backgrounds, borders, text formatting and more. CSS rules are made up of selectors and declaration blocks and can be applied via internal, external or inline stylesheets. Common CSS properties include color, background-image, border, text-align and text-decoration. CSS follows a cascading order of precedence and allows flexible and efficient webpage styling.

CSS (Cascading Style Sheet)

Presentation by: Rishav Malla Thakuri


What is CSS?

 CSS is a language that describes the style of an HTML


document.
 CSS stands for Cascading Style Sheets
 CSS describes how HTML elements are to be displayed
on screen, paper, or in other media
 CSS saves a lot of work. It can control the layout of
multiple web pages all at once
 External stylesheets are stored in CSS files
CSS Syntax

 A CSS rule-set consists of a selector and a declaration block:

 The selector points to the HTML element you want to style.


 The declaration block contains one or more declarations
separated by semicolons.
 Each declaration includes a CSS property name and a value,
separated by a colon.
 A CSS declaration always ends with a semicolon, and declaration
blocks are surrounded by curly braces. 
Example

 h1{
 color:red;
 text-align: center;
 }

 p{
 color: blue;
 }
Inserting CSS

We can use style sheets in three different ways in out HTML document. There
are external style sheet, internal style sheet and inline style.

1. External CSS
 With an external style sheet, you can change the look of an entire website
by changing just one file!
 Each HTML page must include a reference to the external style sheet file
inside the <link> element, inside the head section.
 Example:
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="mystyle.css" />
</head>
External CSS

 An external style sheet can be written in any text editor. The file should not
contain any html tags. Your style sheet should be saved with a .css extension.
 Example:
 hr {
 color:sienna;
 }
 p
 {
margin-left:20px;
 } /*Note: Do not leave space between property value and units*/
 body {
background-image:url("images/back40.gif");
 }
Internal CSS

 An internal style sheet may be used if one single HTML page has a unique style.
 The internal style is defined inside the <style> element, inside the head section.
 Example:
 <html>
 <head>
 <style>
 body {
 background-color: linen;
}
 h1 {
 color: maroon;
 margin-left: 40px;
}
 </style>
 </head>
 <body>
 <h1>This is a heading</h1>
 <p>This is a paragraph.</p>
 </body>
 </html>
Inline CSS

 An inline style may be used to apply a unique style for a


single element.
 To use inline styles, add the style attribute to the relevant
element. The style attribute can contain any CSS property.
 Example:
 <body>

<h1 style="color:blue;text-align:center;">This is a
heading</h1>
<p style="color:red;">This is a paragraph.</p>

</body>
Cascading Order

 What style will be used when there is more than one style
specified for an HTML element?
 All the styles in a page will "cascade" into a new "virtual" style
sheet by the following rules, where number one has the highest
priority:
1. Inline style (inside an HTML element)
2. internal style sheets (in the head section)
3. External style sheet
4. Browser default
 So, an inline style has the highest priority, and will override
external and internal styles and browser defaults.
CSS Selectors

 CSS selectors are used to "find" (or select) the HTML elements you
want to style.

1. The CSS id Selector

 The id selector uses the id attribute of an HTML element to select a


specific element.
 The id of an element is unique within a page, so the id selector is used
to select one unique element!
 To select an element with a specific id, write a hash (#) character,
followed by the id of the element.
The CSS id Selector

 Example:
The CSS rule below will be applied to the HTML element with id="para1": 
<html>
<head>
<style>
#para1 {
text-align: center;
color: red;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>

<p id="para1">Hello World!</p>


<p>This paragraph is not affected by the style.</p>
</body>
</html>
2 . The CSS class Selector

 The class selector selects HTML elements with a specific class


attribute.
 To select elements with a specific class, write a period (.)
character, followed by the class name.
Example:
 <html>
 <head>
 <style>
 .center {
 text-align: center;
 color: red;
 }
 </style>
 </head>
 <body>

 <h1 class="center">Red and center-aligned heading</h1>


 <p class="center">Red and center-aligned paragraph.</p>

 </body>
 </html>
Example
In this example only <p> elements with class="center" will be center-aligned: 

 <html>
 <head>
 <style>
 p.center {
 text-align: center;
 color: red;
 }
 </style>
 </head>
 <body>

 <h1 class="center">This heading will not be affected</h1>


 <p class="center">This paragraph will be red and center-aligned.</p>

 </body>
 </html>
CSS Colors
 Colors are specified using predefined color names, or RGB, HEX, HSL,
RGBA, HSLA values.

CSS Backgrounds
 The CSS background properties are used to define the
background effects for elements.
 CSS background properties:

1. background-color
2. background-image
3. background-repeat
4. background-attachment
5. background-position
1.CSS background-color
 The background-color property specifies the background
color of an element.
 body {
  background-color: lightblue;
}
2. CSS background-image
 The background-image property specifies an image to use as the
background of an element.
 By default, the image is repeated so it covers the entire element.
 body {
  background-image: url("paper.gif");
}
CSS background-repeat

 By default, the background-image property repeats an image both


horizontally and vertically. Some images should be repeated only
horizontally or vertically. Looks like this:
 If the image is repeated only horizontally (repeat-x), the background will
look better:
 body
 {
 background-image:url('gradient2.png');
 background-repeat:repeat-x;
 }
Background Image - no-repeat

 Showing the background image only once is also specified


by the background-repeat property:

 body {
  background-image: url("img_tree.png");
  background-repeat: no-repeat;
}
CSS background-position
 The background-position property is used to specify the
position of the background image.

 body {
  background-image: url("img_tree.png");
  background-repeat: no-repeat;
  background-position: right top;
}
CSS background-attachment
 The background-attachment property specifies whether the background
image should scroll or be fixed (will not scroll with the rest of the page):
 body {
  background-image: url("img_tree.png");
  background-repeat: no-repeat;
  background-position: right top;
  background-attachment: fixed;
}

 body {
  background-image: url("img_tree.png");
  background-repeat: no-repeat;
  background-position: right top;
  background-attachment: scroll;
}
CSS background - Shorthand property

 To shorten the code, it is also possible to specify all the


background properties in one single property. This is called a
shorthand property.
 The shorthand property for background is background.
 body {
  background: #ffffff url("img_tree.png") no-repeat right top;
}

CSS Borders
 CSS Border Properties
 The CSS border properties allow you to specify the style,
width, and color of an element's border.
 CSS Border Style
 The border-style property specifies what kind of border to display.
 The following values are allowed:
 dotted - Defines a dotted border
 dashed - Defines a dashed border
 solid - Defines a solid border
 double - Defines a double border
Example:
 <style>
 p.dotted {border-style: dotted;}
 p.dashed {border-style: dashed;}
 p.solid {border-style: solid;}
 p.double {border-style: double;}
 p.groove {border-style: groove;}
 p.ridge {border-style: ridge;}
 p.inset {border-style: inset;}
 p.outset {border-style: outset;}
 p.none {border-style: none;}
 p.hidden {border-style: hidden;}
 p.mix {border-style: dotted dashed solid double;}
 </style>
CSS Border Width
 The border-width property specifies the width of the four borders.
 The width can be set as a specific size (in px, pt, cm, em, etc) or by using
one of the three pre-defined values: thin, medium, or thick.
 The border-width property can have from one to four values (for the top
border, right border, bottom border, and the left border).

CSS Border Color

 The border-color property is used to set the color of the four


borders.
 The border-color property can have from one to four values
(for the top border, right border, bottom border, and the left
border). 

CSS Border - Shorthand Property
 The border property is a shorthand property for the
following individual border properties:
 border-width
 border-style (required)
 border-color

 p {
  border: 5px solid red;
}
CSS Text

 Text Color

 The color property is used to set the color of the text. The color is specified by:
 a color name - like "red“
 a HEX value - like "#ff0000"
 an RGB value - like "rgb(255,0,0)"
Text Alignment
 The text-align property is used to set the horizontal alignment of a text.
 A text can be left or right aligned, centered, or justified.
 When the text-align property is set to "justify", each line is stretched so that
every line has equal width, and the left and right margins are straight (like
in magazines and newspapers):
Text Decoration
 The text-decoration property is used to set or remove
decorations from text.
 The value text-decoration: none; is often used to remove
underlines from links:
 <style>
 a{
 text-decoration: none;
 }
 </style>

Note: this removes underline from the links.


CSS Fonts
 The CSS font properties define the font family, boldness,
size, and the style of a text.
 Difference Between Serif and Sans-serif Fonts
Font Family
 The font family of a text is set with the font-family property.
 The font-family property should hold several font names as a "fallback"
system. If the browser does not support the first font, it tries the next font,
and so on.
 <style>
 p.serif {
 font-family: "Times New Roman", Times, serif;
 }

 p.sansserif {
 font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
 }
Font Style
 The font-style property is mostly used to specify italic
text.
 This property has three values:
 normal - The text is shown normally
 italic - The text is shown in italics
 oblique - The text is "leaning" (oblique is very similar to
italic, but less supported)
Font Size
 The font-size property sets the size of the text.
 h1 {
  font-size: 40px;
}

h2 {
  font-size: 30px;
}

p {
  font-size: 14px;
}
CSS Lists
 Different List Item Markers
 The list-style-type property specifies the type of list item marker.
 ul.a {
  list-style-type: circle;
}

ul.b {
  list-style-type: square;
}

ol.c {
  list-style-type: upper-roman;
}

ol.d {
  list-style-type: lower-alpha;
}
CSS Tables
 Table Borders
 To specify table borders in CSS, use the border property.
 The example below specifies a black border for <table>, <th>,
and <td> elements:
 <style>
 table, th, td {
 border: 1px solid black;
 }
CSS Tables
 Collapse Table Borders
 The border-collapse property sets whether the table borders
should be collapsed into a single border:
 table {
  border-collapse: collapse;
}

table, th, td {


  border: 1px solid black;
}
CSS Tables
 Table Width and Height
 Width and height of a table are defined by
the width and height properties.
 The example below sets the width of the table to 100%, and the
height of the <th> elements to 50px:
 table {
  width: 100%;
}

th {
  height: 50px;
}
Horizontal Alignment
 The text-align property sets the horizontal alignment (like
left, right, or center) of the content in <th> or <td>.
 By default, the content of <th> elements are center-
aligned and the content of <td> elements are left-aligned.
 The following example left-aligns the text in <th>
elements:

 th {
  text-align: left;
}
Table Padding

 To control the space between the border and the content in


a table, use the padding property on <td> and <th>
elements:

th, td {
  padding: 15px;
  text-align: left;
}
Hoverable Table
 Use the :hover selector on <tr> to highlight table rows on
mouse over:
 tr:hover {background-color: #f5f5f5;}

Table Color
 The example below specifies the background color and text
color of <th> elements:
 th {
  background-color: #4CAF50;
  color: white;
}
The CSS Box Model
 All HTML elements can be considered as boxes. In CSS, the
term "box model" is used when talking about design and
layout.

 The CSS box model is essentially a box that wraps around


every HTML element. It consists of: margins, borders,
padding, and the actual content. The image below illustrates
the box model:
The CSS Box Model

Explanation of the different parts:


Content - The content of the box, where text and images appear
Padding - Clears an area around the content. The padding is transparent
Border - A border that goes around the padding and content
Margin - Clears an area outside the border. The margin is transparent
The box model allows us to add a border around elements, and to define
space between elements. 
CSS Layout - The display Property
 The display property is the most important CSS property
for controlling layout.
 The display property specifies if/how an element is
displayed.
 Every HTML element has a default display value
depending on what type of element it is. The default
display value for most elements is block or inline.
Block-level Elements

 A block-level element always starts on a new line and takes up


the full width available (stretches out to the left and right as far as
it can).
 The <div> element is a block-level element.
 Examples of block-level elements:
 <div>
 <h1> - <h6>
 <p>
 <form>
 <header>
 <footer>
 <section>
Inline Elements

 An inline element does not start on a new line and only


takes up as much width as necessary.
 This is an inline <span> element inside a paragraph.
 Examples of inline elements:
 <span>
 <a>
 <img>
Display: none
 display: none; is commonly used with JavaScript to hide
and show elements without deleting and recreating them.
Take a look at our last example on this page if you want to
know how this can be achieved.
 The <script> element uses display: none; as default.

 h1{
 display:none;
}
CSS Padding

 The CSS padding properties are used to generate space around an


element's content, inside of any defined borders.
 With CSS, you have full control over the padding. There are properties for
setting the padding for each side of an element (top, right, bottom, and
left).

 Padding - Individual Sides


 CSS has properties for specifying the padding for each side of an
element:
 padding-top
 padding-right
 padding-bottom
 padding-left
Css Padding
 <style>
 div {
 border: 1px solid black;
 background-color: lightblue;
 padding-top: 50px;
 padding-right: 30px;
 padding-bottom: 50px;
 padding-left: 80px;
 }
 </style>
CSS Margins

 The CSS margin properties are used to create space around


elements, outside of any defined borders.
 With CSS, you have full control over the margins. There are
properties for setting the margin for each side of an element (top,
right, bottom, and left).
 Margin - Individual Sides
 CSS has properties for specifying the margin for each side of
an element:
 margin-top
 margin-right
 margin-bottom
 margin-left
 <style>
 div {
 border: 1px solid black;
 margin-top: 100px;
 margin-bottom: 100px;
 margin-right: 150px;
 margin-left: 200px;
 background-color: lightblue;
 }
 </style>
CSS position Property

 The position property specifies the type of positioning


method used for an element.
 The position property specifies the type of positioning
method used for an element (static, relative, absolute,
fixed, or sticky).
Position: static;

 HTML elements are positioned static by default.


 Static positioned elements are not affected by the top,
bottom, left, and right properties.
 An element with position: static; is not positioned in any
special way; it is always positioned according to the
normal flow of the page:
 Eg: This <div> element has position: static;
 div.static {
  position: static;
  border: 3px solid #73AD21;
}
position: relative;

 An element with position: relative; is positioned relative to


its normal position.
 Setting the top, right, bottom, and left properties of a
relatively-positioned element will cause it to be adjusted
away from its normal position. Other content will not be
adjusted to fit into any gap left by the element.
 Eg:
 div.relative {
  position: relative;
  left: 30px;
  border: 3px solid #73AD21;
}
position: fixed;

 An element with position: fixed; is positioned relative to the


viewport, which means it always stays in the same place even if
the page is scrolled. The top, right, bottom, and left properties
are used to position the element.
 A fixed element does not leave a gap in the page where it would
normally have been located.
 div.fixed {
  position: fixed;
  bottom: 0;
  right: 0;
  width: 300px;
  border: 3px solid #73AD21;
}
position: absolute;

 An element with position: absolute; is positioned relative


to the nearest positioned ancestor (instead of positioned
relative to the viewport, like fixed).
 However; if an absolute positioned element has no
positioned ancestors, it uses the document body, and
moves along with page scrolling.
 Note: A "positioned" element is one whose position is
anything except static.
position: absolute;
 div.relative {
  position: relative;
  width: 400px;
  height: 200px;
  border: 3px solid #73AD21;
}

div.absolute {
  position: absolute;
  top: 80px;
  right: 0;
  width: 200px;
  height: 100px;
  border: 3px solid #73AD21;
}
position: sticky;

 An element with position: sticky; is positioned based on


the user's scroll position.
 A sticky element toggles between relative and fixed,
depending on the scroll position. It is positioned relative
until a given offset position is met in the viewport - then it
"sticks" in place (like position:fixed).
CSS Layout - float 

 With CSS float, an element can be pushed to the left or right,


allowing other elements to wrap around it. Float is very often
used for images, but it is also useful when working with layouts.
 How Elements Float
 Elements are floated horizontally; this means that an element
can only be floated left or right, not up or down. A floated
element will move as far to the left or right as it can.
 Usually this means all the way to the left or right of the
containing element. The elements after the floating element will
flow around it. The elements before the floating element will not
be affected. If an image is floated to the right, a following text
flows around it, to the left.
 The float property can have one of the following values:
 left - The element floats to the left of its container
 right - The element floats to the right of its container
 none - The element does not float (will be displayed just
where it occurs in the text). This is default
 inherit - The element inherits the float value of its parent
 In its simplest use, the float property can be used to wrap
text around images.
 Eg: https://www.w3schools.com/css/css_float.asp
CSS box-shadow Property

 The box-shadow property attaches one or more shadows


to an element.
 #example1 {
  box-shadow: 5px 10px;
}

#example2 {
  box-shadow: 5px 10px #888888;
}
CSS text-shadow Property

 The text-shadow property adds shadow to text.


 h1 {
  text-shadow: 2px 2px #ff0000;
}
What is Responsive Web Design?

 Responsive Web Design is about using HTML and CSS to


automatically resize, hide, shrink, or enlarge, a website, to
make it look good on all devices (desktops, tablets, and
phones):
 Web pages can be viewed using many different devices:
desktops, tablets, and phones. Your web page should look
good, and be easy to use, regardless of the device.
 Web pages should not leave out information to fit smaller
devices, but rather adapt its content to fit any device:
 Eg:
https://www.w3schools.com/css/tryit.asp?filename=tryres
ponsive_col-s
Responsive Web Design - Media Queries

 What is a Media Query?


 Media query is a CSS technique introduced in CSS3.
 It uses the @media rule to include a block of CSS properties only if a certain
condition is true.
 <style>
 body {
 background-color: lightgreen;
 }

 @media only screen and (max-width: 600px) {


 body {
 background-color: lightblue;
 }
 }
 </style>
